To cycle through them and to change out for fresh stuff is slow.

Didn't think about it until it was playing....reminds me of wishing I'd hit the Minutemen and Mats with you, my loss. Speaking of loss, I miss some of the long lost cassettes I had from you and the RUV days. Glad to see your writing about the bright spots of the 80's...it wasn't all bad.accudarthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02382053706682702257noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5730822.post-25884896547252827582008-05-31T10:19:00.000-04:002008-05-31T10:19:00.000-04:00That's why the DID game is so limited.
